The Vermont jam band will celebrate the Fourth of July with a three-night stand at Saratoga Performing Arts Center in Saratoga Springs, NY (July 3-5) and will headline the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival on April 26-18 years to the day of the band’s last performance at the festival.

Phish, which debuted its self-titled album in 1986, took a two-year hiatus from 2000-2002, but returned in 2002 with the album “Round Room,” and most recently introduced 12 new songs in a Halloween night concert last year. In 2013, Rolling Stone put Phish on its list of the “50 Greatest Live Acts Right Now.”
